Re: How to get a mentor

I'm in Fort Wayne, Indiana.  I'm not aware of any meetups in the area.  The nearest that I know about are in Chicago, but that's a 3 hour drive one way.

Hi,

I suggest going to local meetups, you may meet people that could mentor or help you on specific issues, or help you to find a mentor, they could either know someone or know of local mentorship programs.

Where are you located?

I need a mentor.  I've got an idea for a non-profit that I think could be spectacular, and I think Django is the right platform.  But, every time I run into a challenge it takes me days to solve for multiple reasons: I'm a father of 6, my job has nothing to do with Python, and I don't know what I don't know.  If I had someone who has actually made a site to guide me, I bet most of my time consuming roadblocks would be decimated. If anyone could suggest a good route to find a mentor, I'd be very grateful.  I've wasted far too much time trying to solve problems only to find a package that solves the problem perfectly weeks later.  Ideally, I'd like to find someone who has some entrepreneurial experience, but I'll take any help I can get!  Thanks!
